Numerical Analysis of a Residential Energy System That Integrates Hybrid Solar Modules (PVT) with a Heat Pump

Photovoltaic-thermal (PVT) collectors are hybrid solar that convert and ambient energy into thermal electrical energy. Integrated PVT-HP, in which PVT combined with a heat pump, offers an efficient renewable option to replace conventional fossil fuel-based systems residential buildings. Currently, system concepts the selection, design control of components aligned towards performance lacking. The development model enables comparison variety parameters designs, informed decision making based on energetic market diffusion PVT-HP systems. This contribution presents simulation system. By means numerical simulations, program TRNSYS, investigated. It is shown can cover annual demand building. corresponding Seasonal Performance Factor (SPF) equal 3.6. Furthermore, effect varying weather conditions, occupancy building orientations reference analyzed. SPF for investigated scenarios varies between 3.0 3.9. Lastly, two parameters, collector area, type varied as initial step optimization performance. To sum up, presented suitable dynamic exploration concepts. study shows parametric variations showcase potential
